TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by almost exposing my side hustle at work because of a stupid receipt

For context, I have a regular 9-5 office job. It’s fine, but it’s not exactly something I’m passionate about. Over the last year, I started picking up freelance graphic design projects on the side. It’s nothing huge, but it brings in some decent extra income here and there, enough that I’ve managed to build up some savings, and if all goes well, I’m hoping to leave my current job in the next three months to freelance full time.

The catch is that my company has a strict no moonlighting policy. Even though I only take freelance work outside of office hours, they’re pretty clear that anything like a second source of income has to be disclosed, and honestly, I’d rather not get into it with them until I’m ready to leave.

Anyway, today during lunch, I went to grab coffee with a coworker. I offered to pay, pulled out my wallet without thinking, and accidentally handed the cashier the wrong card, my freelance business card, which literally has the name of my design page printed on it.

The cashier, being super cheerful and loud, said, "Oh wow, you do design? That's so cool!" right in front of my coworker. She immediately started asking what it was about, and I panicked and said something vague about helping a friend's project.

Now she’s suspicious, and if word gets around, I could have a pretty awkward conversation with my boss way earlier than planned. I’ve been so careful for months, and one careless moment at a coffee shop might blow it all up.

TL;DR: I accidentally handed my coworker my freelance business card instead of my regular one and now she’s suspicious. Might have accidentally outed my secret side hustle to my boss three months earlier than planned.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
